Spiders From Uranus Release Debut Album “Blow It Out”

Seattle’s Spiders from Uranus have released their debut full length, Blow It Out, via Bandcamp & streaming platforms. On the album songwriter Chris Pugh finds himself in a state of infectious ease. The album’s nine tracks offer bite-sized, potent bursts of punk-rock that rarely push past the two minute mark. Tales of bad parties, nightmares and evasive, raccoon-eyed characters spill recklessly from the three-piece in a torrent of guitars, drums, and harmonies as the audience is pulled along on a ride that feels inexplicably fun.

Over the years Pugh has played in countless bands such as Young Pioneers, Pet Projects, Creep, Saba, and many more that he can scarcely remember, cultivating a rich bed of musical tradition and community that informs his most recent effort. He tapped longtime collaborators Colm Meek, who played with Pugh in Creep and Saba, as well as in a project called Heliotrope, and Scott Vanderpool, who played in Young Pioneers as well as Chemistry Set, to form Spiders of Uranus. The trio teamed up with Tad Doyle at Seattle’s Witch Ape Studio to deliver a reinvention of their past projects and boil them down to their most enjoyable parts as this is a band that wants to have fun.
